[0054] The following experiments were performed to verify the effect of the method for preparing chromosomes of Phoebe sphenanthera of the present invention:

[0055] (1) Influence of different sampling sites

[0056] The taproots and lateral roots in the root tips of one-year-old seedlings of Phoebe macranthoides and the taproots and lateral roots of newly sprouted seedlings (seedlings grew to 15-20 cm) were selected for analysis.

[0057] The role of different sampling sites is to select the site with the most vigorous mitosis. The root tip is the site with the most vigorous mitosis. The results show that the main root and lateral root of the one-year-old seedling are thicker, which makes it more difficult to prepare the slides. In addition, the number of cells in the division stage of the meristem is very small, while the number of cells in the division stage of the main root and lateral root of the newly germinated seedling is very large, which greatly reduces the workload of microscopic examination. The results of chromosome preparation of the root tip cells of the main root and lateral root of the newly germinated seedling of P. maculatus are shown in Tables 1 and Figure 1 .

[0058] The results showed that most of the root tip cells of the taproot did not divide vigorously, with a large number of cells in the interphase and a small number of cells in the cell division phase ( Figure 1Figure A in the figure). The cells in the lateral roots are obviously in the cell division phase. The root tip of Phoebe macranthoides has the best preparation effect. The root tip cells in this part divide more vigorously, and there are many cells in the metaphase of division ( Figure 1 Figure B in the figure).

[0059] Table 1 Effect of sampling location on chromosome preparation

[0060]

[0061] Note: The number of “+” represents the degree of cell division.

[0062] (2) The impact of different sampling times

[0063] The purpose of selecting different sampling times is to select the time period with the most active mitosis, so as to facilitate the locking and acquisition of cells in metaphase for observation. The results of chromosome preparation of root tip cells of Phoebe maculatum at different sampling times are shown in Tables 2 and Figure 2 .

[0064] The results showed that most of the root tip cells sampled around 8:00 did not divide vigorously, and some of the chromosomes were dot-shaped (see Figure 2 A in Figure ), some are filamentous (see Figure 2 Some are tangled together, making it difficult to count (see Figure 2 Most of the root tip cells sampled at around 12:00 and 14:00 were entangled and had unclear outlines (see Figure 3). Figure 2 Figure E in Figure 2 Therefore, the best time to prepare the slices of the root tips of Phoebe maculatum is around 10:00. At this time, the root tip cells divide more vigorously, with many cells in metaphase, and the chromosome background is also clear and distinct (see Figure 2 Figure D in the figure).

[0065] Table 2 Effect of sampling time on chromosome preparation

[0066]

[0067] Note: The number of “+” represents the degree of cell division.

[0068] (3) Effect of different pretreatment times

[0069] There are two main effects of different pretreatment methods. One is to obtain more cells in metaphase, and the other is to further induce chromosomes to shorten and straighten, making chromosomes more dispersed and the staining morphology clearer.

[0070] The results of preparing slices of the root tips of Phoebe macranthoides with different pretreatment times are as follows: Figure 3It can be clearly seen from the figure that the pretreatment time has an impact on the dispersion and clarity of chromosomes in the root tip cells of Phoebe maculatum. When the pretreatment time is too short (2h), the chromosomes are not formed, most of them have not formed clear boundaries, and most of the chromosomes are stuck together. When the pretreatment time is too long (48h), the chromosomes in the root tip of Phoebe maculatum are mostly stuck together and blurred. The chromosomes in the root tip of Phoebe maculatum that are pretreated for 24h are more dispersed and the background is clear, which is conducive to the determination of chromosome number and karyotype analysis.

[0071] (4) Effect of different dissociation times

[0072] The purpose of dissociation is to separate the cells. After the cells are dispersed, it is easier to observe the number of chromosomes in a single cell. If the dissociation time is too long, the cells will rupture and the chromosomes will flow out. If the cell dissociation time is too short, the cells will overlap and it will not be convenient for microscopic observation.

[0073] Effects of different dissociation times on the root tip cells of Phoebe macranthoides Figure 4 As shown, the root tip cells dissociated for 6 minutes have unclear overlap, which is not conducive to the observation and counting of chromosomes; the root tip cells dissociated for 8 minutes have clear edges and no overlap, which is convenient for observing chromosomes and performing karyotype analysis; while the root tip cells dissociated for 10 minutes basically have no cell morphology, the dissociation is excessive, and the cells and chromosomes are scattered everywhere. The preparation effect of the root tip of the black shell macaw dissociated for 8 minutes is the most ideal.

[0074] (5) Effect of different dyeing times

[0075] If the staining time is too long, the cells and the degree of staining will be poor, and the cytoplasm will also be stained. If the staining time is too short, the staining will not be clear and is not conducive to observation.

[0076] The results of different staining times are as follows Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the root tip cells of the black shell macula dyed for 6 minutes are not deeply colored, which is not conducive to the analysis of chromosome morphology and number; the root tip cells of the black shell macula dyed for 8 minutes are well colored, and the chromosome morphology and number can be clearly observed; the root tip cells of the black shell macula dyed for 10 minutes are too darkly colored, which is not conducive to observation. Therefore, the root tip of the black shell macula dyed for 8 minutes has the best preparation effect.

[0077] The above experiments show that:

[0078] Ice bath shortens chromosomes, disperses chromosomes and has clear staining morphology. The root tip cells of newly germinated seedling lateral roots divide more vigorously, and the preparation effect is good. The root tip cells divide more vigorously when the material is collected at 10 am, and there are many cells in the metaphase of division. The background of chromosomes is also very clear and the morphology is distinct. The chromosomes of the root tip of the black shell nanmu pretreated for 24 hours are more dispersed and the background is clear, which is conducive to the determination of chromosome number and karyotype analysis. The edge of the root tip cells dissociated for 8 minutes is clear and there is no overlap, which is convenient for observing chromosomes and performing karyotype analysis. The root tip cells of the black shell nanmu root stained for 8 minutes are well colored, and the morphology and number of chromosomes can be clearly observed.

[0079] It should be noted that when the claims of the present invention involve numerical ranges, it should be understood that the two endpoints of each numerical range and any numerical value between the two endpoints can be selected. In order to avoid redundancy, the present invention describes a preferred embodiment.

Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications that fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0081] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
